HOST ALMAK
Reaping and Reflecting is a virtual version of ALMAKs journal. In 2019 she decided that she would begin to work on her first project, Hyphy Bruja; a combination of journal reflections, and art. Unknowingly after months of this practice and other life experiences, she learned that her growth and the moon phases were in sync and had a sacred connection to the things that happened in her life. Her intention now is to share what she has learned in hopes that it will help others work alongside the many divine energies that have always been around them.

JAH WARRIOR SHELTOR
Jah Warrior Shelter’s Jah Yzer, I-vier & Irie Dole have established themselves as one of California’s leading sounds, winning 9 Sound Clash titles. Each selector in the crew has his unique style, earning well deserved recognition, not only as a clash sound, but a top juggling sound as well. In The Bay Area, you can always find a Jah Warrior Shelter Hi-Fi dance to go to and have a good time, either with individual selectors or together as one sound.

BAYONICS
Born in the San Francisco Mission District, for the past two decades BAYONICS has mixed Reggae and Latin music to create a style as unique as the city they call home. Freely melding genres, they carry on the tradition of legendary Bay Area groups such as Santana and Sly & The Family Stone, groups that sought to transcend genre with music that moves people both literally and figuratively. BAYONICS is led by lead singer Jairo Vargas, whose vocals bounce from guttural grit to smooth and sweet. Being legally blind, Jairo has faced challenges in life but is resolutely undeterred by any physical limitations. He has channeled his life experience into music, delivering live performances with a spirit and soul that transfixes fans.
